U+5704 "圄" CJK Unified Ideograph-# Unicode Character
Unicode Version 17.0
圄
U+5704 "圄" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a Chinese character that primarily means "prison" or "jail," often appearing in classical texts to denote a place of confinement or imprisonment. It is composed of the radical "囗" (enclosure) surrounding "吾" (my or I), which together suggest a sense of being enclosed or restrained. In modern usage, it is less common than related characters like "囚" (prisoner) but can be found in historical literature and legal contexts, sometimes in phrases like "圄犴" (ancient term for jail) or as part of names. Its standardized form is recognized across the CJK (Chinese, Japanese, Korean) unified script systems, ensuring consistent representation in digital texts.
